The Pursuit of Excellence



Congratulations to the Institute of Excellence and Higher Education (IEHE) in Bhopal, India, which has managed to maintain its 'A' grade from the National Assessment and Accreditation Council.

If you are wondering how they did it, see the story in the Hindustan Times
"The Institute of Excellence and Higher Education (IEHE) in Bhopal improved its teacher and student ratio from 1:47 to 1:24 a day before the National Assessment and Accreditation Council (NAAC) team was scheduled to visit to retain the institute’s Grade ‘A’.
A three-member NAAC team, led by former vice chancellor SK Singh, will reach on Monday and inspect the institute in 24 sessions.
IEHE, which was facing hardships due to shortage of teachers, appointed 54 guest faculties in a week. The strength of teachers increased from 58 to 112."

There is nothing very unusual about this sort of thing. There have been, for example, suspicions about some British universities offering "relatively short- term contracts"  that expire just after the Research Excellence Framework (REF) assessment is completed.
